IoWipe

The only reusable personal wipe (it changes color when it's used up)!

WHAT IS THE IoWIPE?
  It is the next generation of personal hand and face and surface sanitizers. Compared to other sanitizing wipes, lotions or sprays, iodine dirividves are broader, is a more powerful biocidal against ALL micro-organisms. A durable, water absorbing very soft texture, biocompatible sponge material is combined (not impregnated) with iodine making a contro-release iodine source. The iodine does not wash out when rinsed.  The IoWipe is applied moist to enable transfer of the iodophor to the skin surface.

 

As an ACTIVE sanitizing wipe, IoWipe can be applied to any surface as a moist wipe.

As a PASSIVE sanitizing cover, IoWipe can be fashioned to cover any surface that is touched repeatedly.

How is IoWIPE Superior to other Sanitizing Personal Products?

DEFICIENCES OF CURRENT Sanitizing Personal Products

Most current sanitizing products, such as alcohol-based lotions (e.g., Purell) and wet wipes, rely on alcohol or quaternary amines. While these are partially effective, they have significant limitations:

  1. Limited Effectiveness:
    • Alcohol-based solutions evaporate quickly, reducing their concentration and sanitizing efficacy. While 70% alcohol can theoretically reduce bacteria by 90%, real-world tests show only 70% effectiveness due to rapid evaporation.
    • Alcohol does not effectively combat certain viruses, spores, or resistant bacteria.
  2. Skin Issues:
    • Alcohol sanitizers dry out the skin, potentially causing cracking and compromising the skin’s natural barrier, which increases susceptibility to infection.
    • Products with added aloe may leave a sticky residue.
  3. No Residual Protection:
    • Once alcohol evaporates, it leaves no germ-fighting residue, offering no ongoing protection against microbes.
  4. Quaternary Amine Limitations:
    • Products using benzalkonium chloride (found in brands like SaniHands, Clorox, and Wet Ones) are classified by the CDC as low-level antimicrobials and are not reliable against resistant bacteria.

IoWipe Advantages
IoWipe’s controlled-release iodine technology addresses these shortcomings:

  • Broad-Spectrum Antimicrobial Effectiveness:
    • IoWipe is effective against bacteria, viruses, fungi, and spores, providing comprehensive protection that alcohol and quaternary amines cannot.
  • Longer-Lasting Protection:
    • The controlled release of iodine ensures persistent antimicrobial activity, even after initial application.
  • Gentle and Hydrating:
    • Being water-based, IoWipes are refreshingly cleansing and cooling. They do not dry out the skin, maintaining the natural barrier to infection.
  • Reusable Until Depletion:
    • Unlike disposable wipes, a single IoWipe can be reused multiple times until the iodophor is depleted, signaled by a color change from black to white, indicating it is time for replacement.

Why IoWipe is the Future of Personal Sanitization
IoWipe not only overcomes the limitations of current products but also sets a new standard for personal sanitization with its innovative, effective, and skin-friendly approach that is reusable.

IoWipe for Cosmetics

IoWipe: An imprpvement for Post-Makeup Skincare

For many women, removing makeup is just the first step in their nightly skincare routine. While makeup removers effectively lift cosmetics from the skin, they often leave behind contaminants and a surface vulnerable to bacteria, yeast, and other microorganisms. This is where IoWipe revolutionizes post-makeup skincare.

Deep Cleaning Beyond Makeup Removal
IoWipe bridges the gap between makeup removal and skincare by mechanically cleansing the skin while also eliminating harmful microorganisms that can contribute to eruptions, irritation, or uneven skin tone. Its advanced iodine-based antimicrobial formula ensures skin is not only sanitized, but when it dries, it leaves behind some protecting iodophor.

Color-Changing Technology for Confidence
IoWipe is the only reusable skin wipe; and additionally it changes color from black fading to white as the iodine is used up. This unique feature provides users with a clear indication of when it’s time to replace the wipe, ensuring optimal performance every time.

Perfect for Sensitive Skin
Unlike alcohol-based solutions that can dry out or irritate skin, IoWipe, having a soft, traction providing a gentle yet effective cleaning action, making it ideal for all skin types. Its self-sterilizing properties ensure that the wipe remains germ-free, providing confidence with every use.

Convenience and Sustainability in One Wipe
Women lead busy lives, and IoWipe offers the simple, most effective product available to ensure  that their skin is germ free, with some protection even on the go. Its reusability, portability and convenience with long-lasting efficacy align with modern preferences for sustainable, high-performing skincare solutions.

By incorporating IoWipe into their nightly routine, women can feel confident knowing their skin is not just makeup-free but also safeguarded from harmful microbes. For cosmetic and skin companies, IoWipe, a technology based in wound healing, goes beyond aesthetics to truly support skin health.

An IoWipe inserted into a mask creates an antimicrobial barrier (not just a physical block) that protects the wearer from the environment as well as sanitizing the user's breath.
